What's here?
Welcome to the personal space of Richard Jones writer, blogger, eLearning Specialist and Moodle Guru. I'm semi-retired but open to some contract work. Please also see my Linked In profile for recommendations.
I blog here as well, mostly about travel but sometimes about eLearning too.
What's new?
I have been busy with updating the Simple Lesson plugin for Moodle. You can view this and others at GitHub or find them in the Moodle Plugins Database.
Here is a link to my keynote at the Moodle Schools Conference (hosted by Pukunui) in Sydney.

Recent work
Storyline projects
Most recent project for Hamilton-based Instant Education followed on from some basic Storyline training for their developers and is designed to take Storyline Developers from basic to intermediate level.
Moodle development
The Simple Lesson plugin arose from a need for a simple presentation activity mod for Moodle. The existing Lesson Module could not use questions from the question bank while the Book resource used non-standard Moodle navigation.
The Quiz is a sophisticated but complicated module for beginners.
Simple Lesson allows any question from the question bank to be insterted in a sequence of linear page and provides both Preview and Attempt modes (in which it functions as a simple quiz).
Please see the Moodle documentation page for further details
